Don't forget that this weekend is Museum Weekend, in which more than 500 museums across the Netherlands open their doors for free or for significantly reduced prices. Not every museum participates, but plenty of them do. Here in Utrecht, some of the participating museums include the Sonnenborgh, Catharijneconvent, Geldmuseum, Centraal Museum, and the Botanic Gardens. The Centraal Museum has a special exhibit currently going on, showcasing the work of fashion designer Alexander van Slobbe. The Geld (money) Museum will be offering special workshops on Saturday for just a few euros, allowing you to make jewelry from money.
To see the full list of participating museums, check out the official website. It includes opening times, entrance costs (many are free) and special events taking place this weekend at the museums.
